Sure, I agree. But he's not been either "on the mend" or "capable of doing the job" since Day 1. That's my entire point.

High stress environments, such as lawmaking and campaigning, are not conducive to stroke recovery. Fetterman might have more wiggle room than Feinstein but thats not saying much, and if he's dogged about staying in the senate, then it's a smart bet that he won't recover well enough.

That doesn't address what I'm saying. Dianne Feinstein doesn't want to leave either. She's basically being forced to. How is having her resign due to her obviously declining mental health any different from encouraging Fetterman, who's basically spent his whole term so far in a hospital, from doing the same?

Dianne Feinstein doesn't want to resign, yet she should have a decade ago when the dementia began kicking her ass.
